Differential logic

This document is part of a corpus of sample documents. These documents can be used for evaluating mathematical knowledge management tools.Note that not every document in this corpus needs to be mathematically sound. While this would, e.g., make sense for testing automated theorem provers, it is not always necessary for testing document management tools.

Differential logic is the component of logic whose object is the successful description of variation — for example, the aspects of change, difference, distribution, and diversity — in universes of discourse that are subject to logical description. In formal logic, differential logic treats the principles that govern the use of a differential logical calculus, that is, a formal system with the expressive capacity to describe change and diversity in logical universes of discourse.
